Estate With Pool And Tennis Court Between Lazio And Umbria

Set amid the rolling countryside overlooking the Tiber Valley, close to Guardea and 16 km from Orvieto, this refined 540 sqm country villa comprises two independent units. Faithfully restored from an ancient farmhouse, it stands within 1.7 hectares of enclosed grounds with olive groves, fruit trees, a 12x5-metre panoramic swimming pool and a private regulation hard-surface tennis court. The main residence and guest annexe provide seven air-conditioned bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms, plus an eighth guest bathroom. The principal house is arranged over two levels, with bright living spaces opening through wide glazing onto the garden. Its reception room with large wood-burning fireplace, dining room and convivial kitchen lead directly to furnished porticoes, shaded dining pergolas and a west-facing covered lounge. The ground floor also includes a principal suite with private study area and en-suite bathroom. Upstairs are a king-size bedroom with dressing room, private bathroom and balcony, together with three further bedrooms, each en suite. Handmade terracotta floors, exposed timber beams, solid-wood furnishings and warm tones preserve the Umbrian rural character. The separate annexe offers two bedrooms, two private bathrooms and a laundry room. Automated irrigation supplied by an artesian well, photovoltaic panels, independent underfloor heating for each unit and high-speed internet complete a private residence designed for refined family living and hospitality, near the Alviano WWF Nature Reserve.
